Dogs are the best.

Pet care experience

I'm still pretty new to sitting pets, but I have grown up with cats and dogs since I was a small child and love them dearly. I understand each animal has their own needs and personalities, and I'm more than willing to get to know them so I can take care of them to the best of my ability. I'm able to care for your pet almost however you need me to. I'm able to do timed feedings and medication so long as it doesn't include shots. While I'm staying at your house I'm happy to do other things as well, if you have a fenced backyard and a poop problem I'm your guy. Or if you have smaller caged pets like rodents or fish, I'll give them what attention and care they need as well. I hope that one day I'll be able to become a full time care taker, both in a boarding sense and as well as for foster animals looking for a home. For now, I'm unable to watch any pets at my home due to limited space and cats that don't play well with others.

We went on a small get away vacation from 03/03/2017-03/05/2017. We had looked on Rover.com for a sitter since our regular sitter couldn't watch our animals during this time. We found Samual K. We like his profile and messaged for a meet and greet. We met him and everything sounded great and we let him know that we were going to go away during this time. He seemed glad to do this for us. We asked lots of questions and one of them was "are you going to stay the whole time till we get back?" He said oh yeah I will be here the whole time. The weekend came and we said be at our house about 5pm. My parents live across the street and they have to the house key. We had a list of things that the animals are use to in their routine. We received a few pictures and we texted a couple times. Saturday night we get a text asking when can he leave. We said Sunday about 5pm. Well the weather was really bad at the coast so we figured we will come back early. So we let Samuel know we would be back at 3pm. He could leave then that way the animals are cared for in case we are late. He texted Sunday morning about 9am and said he had left. He had to leave because he needed to be home by 5pm. His profile says he lives in our area and in person said he could walk here. That he lived right up the street. So we told him that we didn't understand why he left when we won't be home till 3pm. He said he was sorry but he had to go. We asked where the key was and he had left it on our table. We asked for a refund and haven't received one. He isn't someone I would want to house sit again. We told him we had an old cat that need her joint medicine everyday and we would pay him for that and he didn't even feed the cat while we were gone. We walked through our house and you could tell they didn't sleep here. The couch was the same as we left it. Our bed was the same. The porch light we left on for when Samuel showed up Friday night was still on when we got home Sunday at 3pm. I feel this person was dishonest and only showed up to feed the dogs and was gone most of the time. Please don't use this person for house sitting!

Information Samuel K. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog eat at a certain time? Are they allergic to anything? Is your dog currently in any training that I could perhaps help out with? Do they have any behavioral problems I should watch out for? I'm willing to sit any breed, but I lack the physical strength to safely keep a large breed of dog under control if they have little or no training. Please let me know if there's any other tasks you'd like from me while I'm watching your pets for you.

A typical day

When me and your dog go out for a walk we'll explore the neighborhood, getting the both of us the exercise we need! In your home I'll play tug of war and practice those new tricks your dog has learned, as well as sit back and relax with your cat who's earned those lovely chin scratches.
